I've connected the server explorer in VS 2012 to my public blob container.
In VS 2010 there is a button for uploading files, but there doesn't seem to be one in VS 2012.
Am I blind, or is the functionality actually missing?
While I'm at it, does anybody know the difference between "Public container" and "Public blob", under container settings in the azure portal? I have my container set as "Public blob".
Public Container means anonymous/unauthenticated requests can list the blobs in the container as well as access the blobs in that container. Public blob means anyone can access blobs in that container given a URL to a given blob but they cannot list the blobs within that container. (See Set Container ACL documentation)
As for the upload button, I'm not seeing one in VS2010 or VS2012, but MSDN doc does refer to its existence. I've always used third party tools like Cloudberry Explorer or Cerebrata CloudStorage Studio.
